LXDE monitor resolution detection
How does LXDE (or underlying stack on Debian 9) determine what resolution(s) a monitor can handle?
I have two Philips 288P 4K monitors and apart from one was made late 2014 and the other early 2016 (and bought later) they are allegedly same model but when connecting to HDMI on same laptop (one at a time) using same cable one of them shows 4K the other only has max of 1920x1080 available. What could cause that and could it be possible to override somehow. This is more out of curiosity since I can only use one at time with this laptop anyway. Some data below

Both seem to repond identically apart from Number 1 says made late 2014 and Number 2 says early 2016
